| Hi, my name
is Jenny, also known as Taylor on here. Im 27 years old and I
have bipolar disorder.Well about a little over a year ago I was
diagnosed with the illness. I have struggled with this since
I was 15 years old. Life with this illness is sometimes not that
easy, I have my good days and my bad days like everyone has.
I have been in the hospital a few times with this, but I made
it through. Im taking quite a few medications, that is the key
word for stabilizing and having good communication with your
phychologist and phychiatrist. I believe one day I will be stabilized
and be able to live a normal life. Dont label yourself as a bipolar,
just know that you are who you are and not a diagnoses. When
they say that bipolars are creative, I think they are right!!
I write alot of poetry and it seems like that's when Im depressed
or manic. The words just come to me and I write away!!! Alot
of the poems are about bipolar and my experiences that I have
had during an episode. I write about angels, and everyday life.
I want to pursue nursing school to be a registered nurse; I have
always dedicated myself ever since I was little to help others.
That's what my parents always told me, and sometimes they get
frustrated and say "Jen, you cant save the world" LOL So now that I have this illness, I feel that I can help many out there that have this. I have a 4 year old son, Caleb, which I spend alot of my time with. There's nothing more special than a child that comes up to you when your sad and tells you they love you and its ok : ) Even though they dont know whats going on, they just know when to love. I love to shop, spend time with my buddies, travel, and pretty much anything that involves people, and dedicating myself to this website and the chatroom. Thats pretty much it about me, I just learn to take it one day at a time and enjoy each day like there is no tomorrow!! |
